#KieranBrown #Goalkeeper #Jabulani
Oh what a day… Thank you for inviting me along mate, loved it. Just booking the therapist appointment now 😂🧤
Hej hej 😘
Props to you for only letting in 6.
what a goalie... flying and save the ball...noice
@@iamshakil10 luk fedte
Goalkeeping gets harder once you are tired, I’m certain that you would have saved at least 3 of those shoots with the jabulani at full energy.
Respect the keeper he was an absolute legend
he really is!
@@KieranBrown just like u!!
Yes mate
@@lauraashworth4602 no mate
No son jugaseis son más como penales o tiros libres
Forlan, the one guy who understood the ball, was an absolute menace in that world cup. His shots and corners were glorious
he said in an interview that he only aimed for the goal, the ball did the rest!
he asked for the ball some time before the world cup and was practising with it
Sneijder too
Forlán said he didn't understand or control the ball. The random deviation was always there so he just accepted he couldn't control it no matter what before anyone else. What he did was always aiming for the center and let the ball do his random weird things.
@@chico_zombye exactly!
nice to see a keeper actually making good saves on youtube great video
With the normal ball he was insane, the ones with the Jubulani were ugly, just do whatever it takes to keep it out of the net. Crazy how much effect it has on keepers style (and confidence).
@@dawnstar81 very true, makes me wonder how good some players actually were during the jubulani era lol
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed just how much improvement Kieran has made to the quality and editing of his videos? That was amazing keep up the good work!
Yeah it used to stink! But it's much better now, I love the hand to camera transitions
And how much he’s improved his game
Yh, seems more professional now compared to years agi
Yup
Still basic compared to the level now
Kieran is single handedly solving the mystery of the jabulani from over 4 years. What a dedication .
Isn't Jabulani from like 12 years ago (WC 2010)?
@@franekalebic5051 yes it is mate
Mystery? I thought everyone knew how shit it was from the day it came out :p
The jabulani was my first ever football I was 2 yrs old
@@franekalebic5051 my first football from when I was a baby
From an outfield player’s perspective, the Jabulani was and still the greatest ball ever made , total nightmare for goalkeepers.. that thing flew like it had a mind of it’s own 😂
You know the ball is crazy when videos are still being made about in 12 years later
Connors save at 2:09 was unreal. Loving the consistent quality of your vids bro!
best gk in the wolrd ngl
@@powerguido805 hah
and thats why he's a pro
What a save he is a legend
I do watch Conor consistently, but this is my very first time watching Kieran. Got to say that I loved this video A LOT. The fourth goal that Conor conceded with the Jab would be an absolute embarrassment for any goalkeeper!!! No wonder everyone hates this ball!!! Thanks a million for uploading this video, Kieran
Jabulani Vs goalkeepers - a never ending love story ❤⚽
Probably because it never started
Irony is that the World Cup the ball was used in... South Africa, had the least amount of goals. It's harder for attackers to control.
Or maybe everyone just park their bus in fear of spain golden generation.
@@davidtogi5878 As if everyone played Spain?
@@BrianHSC idk i get the impression that every team back then was overly cautious with the tiki taka things so one way or another they all adopted an ultra defensive strat right from the start no matter whom they met. 🤷♂️
@@davidtogi5878 Umm.... no.
@@davidtogi5878 yes and no. Tiki taka fits a ball that is pretty controlable in the flat passing game, but not as easy for a lot of wing game or deep pass action. So in a way, Spain's style fitted the ball best and it's no wonder the rest adapted to a style with emphasis on the passing game and a lot of ball circulation approach.
Tell u what been watching Conor for years since his college football days and the improvement from then to now is genuinely insane. That guy picks them out of corners like it’s nothing and is so good and so many different things. I have so much respect for his improvements and his goalkeeping journey
I feel sorry for conor!! - what a guy!
Yeah
Lol
Haha 😂
Your amazing
As you should
Having had the (mis)fortune of experiencing a Jabulani first hand as a keeper I'm not surprised. Never before in my life had I experienced a ball that somehow lost all it's spin mid-flight only to start wobbling in the air before my attempt to catch it. Other times it just randomly dropped down for no reason as if physics suddenly stopped working. The thing just constantly defies expectations of how a ball should behave.
Kieran's scouting department deserves some major props, that keeper puts professional sports into perspective. He's a machine. As Brian Scalabrine would put it, this keeper is closer in skill to some of the worlds best keepers than I am skill wise to Conor. There's levels to this.
Jabulani was used in South Africa and I remember the buzz from the keepers. They all heated it. I just did not realize how bad it was both for field players and goal keepers. Of the 50 with the Jabulani he had many off target as well. With the new ball, unless you edited a lot, it does not look like you had as many odd target. Very interesting stuff
your also from SA?!?!?
What a keeper Conor is! Now I understand how tough it is to score on a professional. Respect!!!!
these guys just cant shoot lmao
@@dez4578 then u shoot maybe?
@@dez4578 and yet 20x better then u
@@emerald8784 cap ill shit on them
@@dez4578 LOL no u wouldnt hes a pro and the goal keeper would save every shot from you stop acting like ur good lol
out of 100 attempted shots only 8 went in, that's amazing bro🔥 RESPECT🔥🔥
i remember complaining about the jabulani to a friend of a mine when it came out. i was like "it's awful you can't even control where the ball will go" he was like "good. if i don't know where the ball is going neither does the goalkeeper!" i was speechless and in awe.
🤣 I got the exact same convo with my team forward back then, but me as the goalkeeper, I was like "At times I have no fucking clue where it was going" and he went "Neither do I, I just take the shot, and off it goes"
Forlan agrees
I have been watching ur vids since 3 or 4 years and u motivated me to do free styling (lov ur freestyles btw) and editing. The best thing about ur videos is editing, ur freestyles and the fun videos, u should deserve more subscribers.
This guy is hands down the best keeper ive ever seen on KZhead! And he doesn’t even look tall! Outstanding goalkeeping
“The Jabulani sucks” “I hate the Jabulani” “The Jabulani is a disgrace” Diego Forlan and Andres Iniesta: “EEEEEYE LIKE IT!”
Lol
Great video Kieran, would have been good to see a stat of how many he caught. Looked like almost everyone against the jabulani was a parry
I had that ball as a kid and I loved the crazy knuckleballs you could do with it.
We hoarded a good few of the Jubulani’s, use them for certain drills with the keepers. Obviously it’s hard to say for certain but we feel like they’ve helped to develop the lads reactions.
Love the videos kieran, keep it the way you doing love ur content..
Love it lads! Great addition having the keepers commentary / initial thoughts 👌 3:13 would’ve been class btw 😳👊 Great idea though, this is on our bucket list 😅
Kieran mate amazing video, been a long-time fan of Conor and you. Just goes to show that even the best keepers can't stop the Jabulani
It's soooo funny seeing Conor move vs. Kieran in goal. This is an amazing video mate and what a good sport.
Diego Forlán 🇺🇾 the only player who can controled the Jabulani in world cup 2010⚽😎👊🏼
El único que pudo dominarla Diego Forlán y su auténtico golazo de tiro libre. Muy buen video bro
AJAJAJAJA en todos los lugares es lo mismo, "Forlán es el único que pudo" estos sudamericanos hambrientos
@@johan6772 es que es la verdad, Forlan desenvolvió su secreto
@@johan6772 mi compa el que se cree Europeo 👍
@@johan6772 pero por qué no admitís que forlan lo hizo solo por qué es sudamericano
@@Pablooom7 ¿Por qué ustedes no pierden ese ego insoportable? todos los futbolistas saben patear un balón, no importa si es uno cuadrado o triangular.
I remember playing Sunday league in goal when this ball was around. An absolute nightmare. What made it worse was the ball would crop up every 3 weeks or so. Many weekends moving early for saves, to going back to pure reactions. Look back on it with love. In some ways I hated it, but in others, improved me as a goalkeeper.
Bro the keeper I swear Conor is really a talented man in goalkeeping. What a BEAST !
About to watch the vid, hyped, know it's gonna be a banger!!
Love Conor and have for years same with you so this colas is the best thing ever keep it up Kieron
Lunch break with this bad boy though was a game changer, some of the screamers that were scored were unreal
Had the real deal Jabulani during that World Cup and man so many good memories with it. I'm sure the keepers I was playing with were probably not thinking the same thing lol.
Kieran, you constantly put out banger after banger. One of the most underrated KZheadrs currently.
I got back into soccer in 2012 after not playing since 2000. The team I played with used these balls. Imagine first time goalkeeping in 12 years and this is what you had to face. They were a nightmare. You could have a routine floater coming right into your arms and at the last second have to dive to knock it away. Crazy.
3:17 the save 💀
Watching this from South Africa bringing back memories of 6 year old me watching the ,2010 world cup here in South Africa
keep up the good stuff homie, ur vids are great!
Great vid Kieran and your so close so 2 mil! Hope you get theee by the end of the week
Great video and great GK. Just to make it a little more "fair" to the Jabulani, it would be interesting to have alternate balls on every shot. After 50 shots with the regular ball, I would expect the GK might concede more goals, not only because Jabulani is worst for him, but also because he was much more tired.
I was a keeper during the jabulani days I loved it
Ok Gavin Kellett sure whatever you say
Love it! Keep it up 🙌
Your videos are amazing bro!!💜😍
I love how the womens euro ball keeps featuring in all of these football KZheadr’s videos I really appreciate it my guy
I had a Jabulani ball but it had the “normal” hexagon/pentagon pattern and it still was moving mad I don’t know if it was just placebo or does every Jabulani move crazy. I would do nasty things to have it back
what a vid! kieran is the best youtuber always finds a way to make a cracking vid!!!! 🔥 content mate!
I love the goalkeeper content!
I’m a goalie myself and it was a nightmare saving goals with that ball
Were you even born when this ball was in use in 2010?
u wasnt alive when this ball was in use
@@Dan-xu4sd yes
bro u make among us and roblox content no way you were born so early
BIGGEST Teams in the SMALLEST Leagues! Check out or channel for the video!!
Even though Jabulani was nightmare for keepers, 2010 World Cup had one of the lowest number of goals per game in a World Cup. 2.23. For reference, Russia was 2.6, Brazil was 2.7. Only Italy 1990 with 2.21 was lower. Record was 1954 with 5.38 goals per game. There were a lot more goals in the first 5 or so World Cups. Although it was probably more a case of everyone shots going wide or over the goal!
Only Diego Forlán got used to the ball. I think he was once quoted saying 'the secret was aiming to the center of the goal, the ball does the rest'
That also due to the winner Spain which spent the entirety of the matches passing the ball around and score one goal each round. Somehow Germany kept putting score sheet high.
@@Account.for.Comment Bundesliga at that time teams still used whatever ball they been sponsored by their jerseys so some teams that were sponsored by Adidas had access to the ball
I've watched Conor for a few years now and he's such a nice bloke and a top top keeper!! As a keeper my self and having faced the jab myself it's horrible!! Fair play to only concede 6
Kieran and Con, loving these collabs🔥🔥
Pongan a Diego Forlán y hace 48/50 y las 2 que fallo fue por volarlas.
El mismo comentario de siempre, Forlan forlan y forlan
@@johan6772 cerra el orto si nunca viste la pegada de forlan con la jabulani
@@SoyElFran04 Ando por todos lados :) me encanta cuando me responden ofendidos como tú
The 2006 teamgeist world cup ball actually started this but seems like this age group probably doesnt quite remember it as well... the seamless and bladder combination really made theknuckles and dips nice.. the geometrics/panel shapes mightve had something to do with the weird flight paths as well
Loved it amazed with his skill
love your content kieran!!!!
2010 Diego Forlán would score every single one of those shots
Do we also have a count of how many times he caught the ball, sent the ball back into play, and deflected for a corner as well because I feel like he retained possession much less as well
Bro this was great lol, keep it up
Legendary Saves man👌🔥
Jabulani was always easier to save when it came at you either low or away from your body. The reason for it is because it's movement is lateral so it moves left or right where the human body is obviously taller than it is wider so the body blocks better top to bottom. Therefore when the goalkeeper dives and the body becomes bigger on the same axis as the Jabulani moves then it becomes far easier to save. Example I am in the centre of my goal, the shot has been taken and I'm fully diving to my right which is where the ball is heading. If the flight of the ball starts moving it to the balls left I'm going to struggle but if it moves the ball right everything from my hands to my toes could contact the ball and make the save. If I am standing and the ball is coming at me it could whip to either side and I only have by body width and one arm or leg and I have to move one of them while my brain is deciding which I should move. Jabulani moves left and right so to make it easiest to save the goalkeeper has to be moving either left or right, that's how to save the Jabulani. The nutmeg goal is absolutely standard unfortunately
adidas claimed back in 2010 that jabulani is the perfectly round ball ever produced guess it's not the best option
Keep up the good content kieren
the cumberland is a class place to have a kick about, great video lad 👍
Hence why Forlan was shooting and scoring from all over the pitch.
Imagine how much of a beast a goalie who trained with that ball would be though
He wouldn’t go for corner shots he’d always wait too long before commiting to get them
As a goalkeeper I love yours and Conor’s collars pls keep the ‘‘em going
Great video as always Kieran! I have a video Idea: Testing every world cup ball (Or something like that)
Every goalkeeper has experienced this 5:29 😆
props to the keeper i don’t think most players realize how tiring it is to take 100 shots in a short period of time
Loved the video guys :) And Connor, you seem to be a decent keeper, and we always have trouble finding a keeper for our thursday 7 p.m. football. Can you maybe step in from time to time if you are free? XD
Kieran i Just saw this video now and i'm so happy to see that Palermo shirt, glad you like it! Forza Palermo 🦅💗🖤
Sure, it seems the Jab. had more unpredictable motion: curves and knuckleballs. That’s just because the strikers were going for that from the very beginning. With the second round of 100 shots, they warmed up at the same time the goalie started to tire.
This guy's a legend
Amazing content like always keep it up!
thanks man!
Ban her
Legit my fav KZheadr
You need to master it at first you will hate it but when u master it you will like it and score amazing goals with it
It's so hard to get a consistent shot that you've missed almost half of the shots. Just imagine if we only counted shots on target, goal percentage would've been a whole lot higher.
Great video so close to 2 million subscribers hopefully you get it
dang 2M keep the good work man!
You should have brought in Diego Forlan!
Best ball ever made
Love the vids bro
Great video! Loved it!
Should have only counted shots on target but great video wish I still had a one of those balls
Yes, also should have counted missed shots, to compare if the ball is a bigger disadvantage for attackers or goalkeepers
forlan decia: tenes que asegurarte que vaya al arco
Love you for that Milan jersey. I’m gonna subscribe from Czechia 🇨🇿. Great content too btw.
Absolutely legend GK
You are a goalkeeper a real goalkeeper your playing at a team
the ball is so bad that even maradona said it was trash. If one of the greatest players of all time (and remind you that he played in way worse pitches than now) is telling you how bad a ball is, you better listen.
I won't lie. As a South African myself y'all pronounce the word JABULANI quite well🔥🔥
Great video Kieran! :)
Nearly 2 million subs. Congrats 🎉🎉🎉
Your just awesome bro 👍👍
Conor is so good in goal he should get a lot more credit. He is an Absolute legend
So close to 2 mil keep it up!
